Holiday Weekend

Good Morning Everyone from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly…

Hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving, weather wise it turned out to be a beautiful day with not a cloud in the sky and very warm temperatures! For all the shoppers out there, it looks like you are in for some perfect weather. Again today we will hit temperatures around 80 degrees with our lows overnight in the lower 50’s. Even as people waited outside this morning for the sales the temperatures stayed relatively warm in the upper 50’s in Abilene. For all the football fans, we should stay mild throughout game time with lower 60’s so you will be able to leave home without the blankets.

As the High pressure system that has been dominating moves off to the East we will open the gulf up and finally be able to get some moisture into the Big Country. This will cause us to finally get some cloud cover, however the rain chances really looking slim. Temperatures will cool down a little; into the lower 70’s but still stay relatively above average until mid next week.

Wednesday we will push through our next cold front and this will be a strong one. We will go from temperatures in the 70’s to close to 50, with overnight lows to just around freezing.

For now, enjoy the sunshine and warm temperatures, and have a great Holiday weekend!
